I challenge you to name an actually useful feature that was added in Windows 11 and not present in any previous release.

Difficulty: QoL features added to undo the effects of bad design changes in Win11 don’t count, such as “compact view” in Windows 11 File Explorer.

Easy, one use adminstration tokens, useful to anyone that cares about security.

Here is another one, enforced application sandboxing and signing, comming up in a future update this year, year another useful one for security.

Yet another one, ability to actually use Windows containers without having the same kernel version between host and guest, useful for Windows developers.

Three for the price of one, there you go.

Eh, the real genius of Windows 11 that Linux lags behind is the seriously first rate emoji picker :).

I would be happier if it really could search and pick every unicode character. I would love to be able to nab "not equals", "approximately equals", "supsercript 2", etc.

The Unix/Linux desktop world has had compose keys for multiple decades now for that exact sort of thing. <Compose> + <=> + </> = ≠, <Compose> + <~> + <~> = ≈, <Compose> + <^> + <2> = ², etc. It's how I get em—dashes and “smart quotes” and such into whatever I type.

Only downside is that defining custom sequences is… less than intuitive.

You can configure rofimoji to work really well and off a keyboard shortcut into any application.
